Add an ice cube (3cmx3cmx4cm) to 200 ml of water and measure displacement as ice cube is lowered into cup. Measurements and calculations Original water level 6cm New water level (after addition of ice) 7cm Volume of water displaced by ice 35ml Volume of ice added to cup (in m) 36ml Height of ice cube below surface 4.8cm 1) Use the height of the ice below water and the total height of the ice cube to find the density of ice. Compare this with the known value of 916.8 kg/m.

You can squirt water from a garden hose a considerably greater distance by partially covering the opening with your thumb. Explain this works.
Look back to figure 14.29. Answer the following two question. Why is poless than atmospheric? Why is pogreater than pi?
Show that the total force on a rectangular dam due to the water behind it increases with the square of the water depth. In particular, show that this force is given by F=gh2L/2 , where is the density of water, h is its depth at the dam, and L is the length of the dam. You may assume the face of the dam is vertical. (Hint: Calculate the average pressure exerted and multiply this by the area in contact with the water. (See Figure 11.42.)
Calculate the ratio of the heights to which water and mercury are raised by capillary action in the same glass tube.
Bird bones have air pockets to reduce their weight—this also gives them an average density significantly less than that of the bones of other animals. Suppose an ornithologist weighs a bird bone air and in water and finds its mass is 45.0 g ad its apparent mass when submerged is 3.60 g (assume the bone is watertight.)(a) What mass of is displaced? (b) What is the volume of the bone? (c) What is its average density?
